Zyban (bupropion): I wasn't even thinking of quitting. I began taking Welbutrin/Zyban and within a week I hadn't craved smoking. It has been great and I have been smoke-free for almost 2 months now.

bupropion: I was 24 when I was prescribed Wellbutrin supposedly to stop smoking. All I wanted to do was sleep and when I couldn't just sleep I was very moody, more so than if I would have just quit without the drug.

bupropion: I have been taking Zyban for a week now. I have quit smoking. It makes the cigarettes taste like you are licking an ashtray. I have also had horrible side effects. When I take my first dose of the day my ears start ringing, I sweat profusely with hot flashes, dry mouth, my hands turn bright red and am dizzy. When I take my second dose I can't sleep when I try to go to bed, and if I do go to bed I have nightmares. I am going to keep taking it though. I am hoping the side effects stop or lessen.

Zyban (bupropion): Given Zyban to help me stop smoking and it worked. I quit smoking, drinking tea and sodas too. To this day I do not want to smoke or drink tea or sodas. I didn't know that I would feel so good too. I didn't feel depressed anymore. I felt content with life. The only draw back I experienced was some dizziness.

bupropion: Although it helps take the edge off my stop smoking attempts, I have not been successful in quitting. The odd and good side effect I have experienced is no urge to drink. I was a heavy beer drinker but now find the taste of beer unpleasant. I feel like a beer at times but after having one I find the taste bad and feel like eating. I have quit drinking.

bupropion: This medication helped me to stop smoking because I didn't have the cravings. It didn't help with the habit part but that just took a little devotion.

bupropion: I used this drug to quit smoking and it worked great. I did have a little nausea but it was not bad. It took the craving away and made it easy to quit. I only had to take the pills for a month.

Zyban (bupropion): I QUIT SMOKING THE DAY I STARTED TAKING ZYBAN AND WITHIN 2 WEEKS I HAD NO DESIRE FOR SMOKING. I USED TO SMOKE 20 CIGARETTES A DAY FOR OVER 20 YEARS. IT HAS BEEN 3 YEARS THAT I QUIT SMOKING.

bupropion: I have attempted to quit several times over the years but always started again, Chantix made me nautious, this medication seemed much more effective in reducing the urge to smoke. Experienced a little insomnia, but recommend taking well before bedtime.
